Not sure where you found that but it's not accurate. Most factual bio fact sheets report them up to 12', and from experience I can tell you that one 9' would be a freak.Zum said:Wow,thought that was photo shopped.
I googled alligator gar and they say they can grow to 12-24 feet in the wild.
24 feet I can't imagine.
jbd6c6 said:Wow great work AimLowRobin! How many arrows to bring that beast in? Noticed your location is Missouri. Ever fished around Columbia? Some great creeks in the area. Can't wait to get back to the states to do some shooting in august, the fishermen in Kota marudu, Malaysia, have beaten me too anything worth pursuing.

Our gar has went around the world as an online urban legend enough times that you can now find the facts behind it on snopes.com. Not photoshopped, lol.
